  Personal reflection: Is the Catholic Church going to start saying “happy holidays”, just like the secular world?

Hello Friends, Gene asked me to send you all a note about his short absence from his editorials.   He had not been feeling well for over a week and I ended up taking him to the ER on December 16 and the doctor said he had a UTI.   Got him home and he continued with high fever and stomach aches.   On Sunday, December 21 he asked me to get the ambulance over to take him back to the ER as he was not feeling well at all.   I tried everything at home but noticed that he was not getting better but very uncomfortable.   On Sunday evening they determined he had a perforated appendix and needed surgery at once.

  OBAMACARE and Troubled World  by Gene Chapman The Republicans all, excepting traitor John McCain, voted against Obamacare because it was unaffordable, designed for eventual single payer government healthcare with the insurance companies being the big winners, and that exactly what happened. It was a total Democrat trick with every Democrat voting for it, with traitor Republican Senator John McCain casting the 60 th vote, destroying world dominant private sector competitive healthcare at high, but affordable prices. Canada’s was near as big a loser as America, with free government healthcare and the normal months to year long waiting list, coming to America in droves, paying out of pocket for life preserving surgeries.  They are now unavailable to many Canadians, with Amerca’s drastically raised Obamacare prices, making Insurance companies richer than ever, and you a pauper.   With 5-to-10-thousand-dollar Obamacare deductibles, and insurance companies in charg...
